I’m going to mix my blog up a bit, and combine a picture post with an “on my walk” post. Today, on my walk to work, I took pictures as I walked, and I wanted to share with you a couple of the more fun ones that I took.

This bird was really fun to watch. He had all sorts of character.

Eventually, he got tired of posing for me, and walked away:

also I wanted to play with the extreme depth of field available with the telephoto zoom lens I have, so I took this picture of a rope, hanging in front of a bench. It’s not terribly artistic, but it helped me understand my lens a little better.

Arizona is full of fountains. It’s like they don’t want visitors to realize that they don’t really have all that much water and so they have what little water they do have out on display all the time. It reminds me of how many people of lower economic stature will drive expensive looking cars. Anyways, here’s a couple of really cool water pics:

Pretty cool, huh?
